Vintage 1964 Egmond Typhoon

Here's another "cheesy guitar" currently on sale on eBay. It's a vinyl-covered Egmond Typhoon from 1964 and appears to be in pretty good condition. There's lashings of pearloid mother-of-toilet seat; all the parts seem to be original, and the tremolo arm is present and correct. I've found old Egmonds before now for sale in charity shops, but they were never as glorious as this one, just beaten-up old jazz boxes with horrible action.
